What happens when Britain’s history is no longer told through monuments, wealth and institutions, but through the ledger behind them? Finding Britain’s Slave Traders with David Olusoga brings names, companies, royal connections and fortunes into focus, forcing us to confront how deeply the transatlantic slave trade was embedded in British society.

Othello: A Timeless Exploration of Jealousy, Racism, and Ambition - A life lived beyond the limits of representation
